The ACA and the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act were both passed with a simple majority.

So did Joe Biden.
The problem is he did nothing meaningful to restore it. My point is simple: It doesn’t matter what you say if you’re not going to use the power you have in order to make the change.
The early image books were magical. I also really liked Savage Dragon.
I would argue that 99% of voters are voting for it.
A good example is Democrats’ response to Roe vs Wade repeal. That is to say, except for fundraising, there wasn’t one. They raked in a cool $80 million though: https://apnews.com/article/abortion-us-supreme-court-elections-campaigns-8a6e3db27082cc212e9e5183b25e7c32.
When one side actively perpetrates fascism and the other side does nothing to stop it, the difference in rhetoric means absolutely nothing to me.
Also, really, they didn’t. It’s just impossible to know or tell all the small ways people tried to make the situation better.
From Germany, to Poland, to Britain the era of Nazism is replete with stories of people who resisted in big and small ways. That’s the part of the story I like to focus on; how so many did small bits of good with their own two hands because it’s all they could do.
It’s crap.
You can use udm14.org though.
The Fediverse is as close as I’ve gotten to Internet the way it used to be, and I donate to the instances I use in order to keep it that way. I wish everyone would.
Our ruling parties have seen over the course of the last 23 years that Americans are accepting of living under constant surveillance, so as dystopian as this is, Ellison’s not proposing anything that is particularly outlandish. If you have any cash squared away, it might even be a good idea to research which companies are trying to get these government contracts and invest.
Incidents Around The House was horrifying.
That’s interesting. Thanks for the info.
I’m so sorry to hear it.
One of the doormen in my building is kind of in a similar situation. He got his doctorate this year, beautiful flute player. Can’t find a job in his field.
TBH, it was a crucial life line for me at a tough time in my life economically.
I didn’t have the energy to work a part-time job and just 90 minutes a week translated to an extra $400-$500 bucks a month.
At its core, it shouldn’t be necessary for people to sell blood and plasma, but Americans vote for for-profit health care and their own impoverishment every two years, so regardless of one’s thoughts on the matter, your very blood is now commoditized at the consent of the voters.
TBH, I think that’s why shows have this now. Fear of legal liability.
I like to get all up in my snuggie. Get a little weird.
The obscenely wealthy donate to both parties. Both parties protect the interests of the wealthy.
Hell, there have been two Democratic administrations that had total congressional control over the last sixteen years. The minimum wage is still seven bucks an hour.
I feel bad for these folks.
My building’s HOA kicks ass, but admittedly, the people we elected to it are very ‘live and let live’.
No, they weren’t.
The thing is, he’s the candidate of change. He doesn’t have to lie about how much people are struggling.
I feel you, dude.
But 99% of voters are going to vote against you on that. There’s nothing we can do about wealth disparity empowering either of these two parties. The best you can do is invest whatever you have to spare, because the stock market at least is on the side of both major parties.
Unlike you, I won’t accept that it’s okay to do nothing because something is challenging.
